The
Wingless Electromagnetic Air Vehicle (
WEAV) is a
heavier than air flight system in development for
NASA at the
University of Florida.
The aircraft uses electrodes on its undercarriage in order to ionize
air, and it then propels the resultant plasma using electromagnets. The
high pressure zone created underneath the aircraft is consequently used
to create thrust for propulsion and stability.
